Pete Ricketts
The money behind Ricketts

Meet Pete,

Pete knows what its like to be an everyday Nebraskan. His dad started TD Bank and sold the company to Charles Schwab, leaving lil' ol' Pete with a mere $40,000,000 in stock in the banking giant.

Pete now carries on the family legacy by representing the interests of the wealthy and powerful on the Senate banking committee.

Corporate PAC money

The corporate PACs writing checks.

Pete wakes up every day thinking about how he can help those who help him: billionaires and big corporations. While sitting on the subcommittee that oversees federal land use, he has received maxed out donations from the rail, construction, and data center industries.

The super PACs spending on this race.

Super PACs raise and spend unlimited money “independently” of the campaign. These are the outside groups spending to sway this race — for or against the candidate, or attacking their general-election opponent — and, where known, who’s really behind the friendly-sounding names. Straight from FEC independent-expenditure filings.
